Title

The impact of metabolic status on olfactory processing

Biosketch

Claire Martin is a CNRS senior scientist working at the University Paris Cité and a member of the Unit of Functional and Adaptive Biology. She obtained her PhD in Neuroscience from Lyon in 2004, where she demonstrated the role of beta-band oscillations in olfactory behavior, particularly memory. In 2005, she joined Leslie Kay’s laboratory at the University of Chicago to further investigate the networks underlying memory acquisition and expression. In 2008, she was appointed as a CNRS researcher in the laboratory Imagerie et Modélisation en Neurobiologie et Cancérologie in Orsay, where she focused her research on sensory and multisensory processing, with a particular emphasis on olfaction. In 2016, she joined the Unit of Functional and Adaptive Biology, where she develops research themes on the sensory aspects of energy balance regulation and the role of neuron-astrocyte interactions in the physiopathology of obesity.
